Nice Campsite on A Lake

I choose a campsite on the lake with some shade. The Campsite was only about half full and was quite. Some sites have a fire ring and grill mine only had a grill but I made it work. Many of the sites have lots of shade. The restroom was clean.

Gem!!!

Located just off of Lake Crocket, this campground is the perfect stay. There are about 10 sites, all with lake views. Visiting in the fall season October/November, there was hardly anyone here. Tent campers cleared out by Sunday. Enjoyed a quiet week stay, with occasional drive by. Lots of fisherman on the lake, boat lunch visible on the east side of the lake. Each site has a fire ring, grill, and table. We kept the solar batteries fully charged all week. Sites on the outer side have great hammock trees. Surprisingly clean pit toilets, and water. No trash, pack it out! Full bars of 5G on T-Mobile, 300/35 mbps dl/ul. Perfect site for tents, vans, teardrop/pop-up/truck campers. First come, first serve - east pay on recreation.gov. Scan the QR code, half off with America the beautiful pass
